The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Little Women by Louisa May Alcott: frankly that the little ceremony closed, as usual, with a motherly

"For Mrs. John Brooke, with the maker's congratulations and
compliments. Bless you, Beth! What a refreshing spectacle you

single lady."
As Laurie spoke, he delivered a brown paper parcel to Meg,
pilled Beth's hair ribbon, stared at Jo's bib pinafore, and fell
into an attitude of mock rapture before Amy, then shook hands all
round, and everyone began to talk.
"Where is John?" asked Meg anxiously.
